STRENGTHS:
Regenerative: Galahad is a Bio-Organic Android capable of self-repair. His flesh will regenerate when he is injured, including wounds that would be fatal to an ordinary organic.
A Learning Computer: Despite being a droid manufactured in a factory, Galahad is capable of experiencing emotions as well as learning from new encounters.
Mage Killer: Most Neutralizers are engineered to be able to resist Force Users, and Galahad is no different. His DNA is spliced with that of a ysalamiri, so he's resistant to direct applications of the Force, and he has special power glands installed in his body that can prevent him from being dismembered by a lightsaber.
Everything But the Kitchen Sink: Galahad comes with various add-ons, including artificial organs that mimic repulsorlifts, allowing him limited flight, as well as organs in his arms that allow him to project and direct massive electrical discharges from his body and organs in his hands that act as mini tactical tractor beams or tractor pressers, allowing him to move or catch/hurl large objects at a distance, retractable claws embedded in his knuckles, and an organ in his throat that functions as a sonic weapon. Just remember that he was designed by an insane person, and then it all makes sense.
The Theologian: As a Chaplain, Galahad is programmed to act as a spiritual leader and advisor to House Io, using his skills to keep up morale and enforce the clan's ethos. He also has psychology programming, allowing him to better understand and help people. Well-versed in various galactic religions and philosophies, he is intelligent and charismatic.
WEAKNESSES:
Rigidly Pacifistic: Galahad is unique from other Chaplains in that he is a pacifist. It isn't that he can't fight, he just chooses not to. When threatened he will attempt to persuade his opponent to ceasefire. If he is attacked anyway, he will either attempt to nonlethally subdue his opponent or survive long enough to reach safety.
Defeatable: Despite his incredible regenerative powers, Galahad has his limits. He is vulnerable to most conventional weaponry, be it blasters, slugthrowers, vibroweapons, or explosives, and can be destroyed if he sustains enough damage. In particular, extensive damage to his brain or complete decapitation will result in his death. (TL;DR Aim for the head.)
Uncanny Valley: Looking just a little too perfect, it is obvious that Galahad is an android even when viewing him from a distance, to say nothing of a medical scan or Force sense. His skin is poreless, his features too symmetrical, his internal organs are strange, and his blood is silver in color. Basically, everything about him screams "unnatural" and other than an elaborate disguise, there is nothing that can hide this fact.
Damned Vong!: Exposure to Alpha Red will cause necrotizing of his flesh and can be fatal unless treatment is immediately applied. Similarly, Baffer Pollen causes intense swelling in his joints for up to fifteen minutes, heavily reducing his maneuverability until his body has a chance to purge it.
Magnetics: Exposure to any kind of high-powered magnetic shenanigans will scramble his databases, slow his regeneration, and potentially adhere his body to the surface of the magnet, leaving him stuck until the magnetic field is disrupted. If you want to catch him, just bring a giant magnet.
Blind Loyalty: Programmed to regard all House Io citizens as family, he will protect and obey them without question. No action he commits can ever come at the cost of betraying House Io's ideals, its citizens, or its leadership. If he is placed in a situation where he will be forced to compromise his loyalty to House Io, he will shut down rather than make the decision. This fanatical devotion is so deeply embedded in his mental architecture, it cannot be overridden no matter how much the rest of him is reprogrammed.
APPEARANCE:
Physically identical to Percival and Lancelot, Galahad is quieter and more reserved than either of his brothers. His dark curly hair is short and neatly combed. He dresses conservatively, often in a full formal suit, typically in dark or muted colors such as gray, brown, or black.
PERSONALITY:
Galahad is the personification of Percival's unmoored Superego. He is empathetic, sensitive, and moralistic. If Percival is a firebrand preacher, and Lancelot is a free-spirited hippie, then Galahad is an intellectual theologian. He is the most reasonable and logic-oriented of the trio, and is the least likely to make decisions based on his feelings. Consequently, he is the least impulsive, but also the least bold - and he tends to be a bit stuffy and "boring". This suits him just fine, as he'd rather spend his time researching and writing than dealing with people (though he retains the characteristic Chaplain charisma). He is overly concerned with how other perceive him, and tends to place the needs of the many above the needs of the few.
BIOGRAPHY:
After engaging in guerilla warfare against various criminal factions located in the Scar Worlds, Percival was captured by Garbo the Hutt, a crime lord based out of New Alderaan. To keep the Chaplain from escaping, he was affixed to a giant magnet and left on display in Garbo's pleasure palace. There he was stumbled upon by Mercy, a mercenary. She offered to help him escape in return for a glowing review of her "services" on a Holonet site. Percival agreed.
Unfortunately, Mercy's method of freeing Percival resulted in his body being dismembered. Three of the separate pieces were capable of regeneration. This event - which came to be known as Percival's "trifurcation" - resulted in the formation of three copies of the original. Two of the copies managed to escape Garbo's palace, while the third was left behind as a decoy.
The third copy was trapped on the magnet for a few days before it was rescued by the Battalion. During that time, he chose the name Galahad for himself. Upon being freed from the magnet, the copy exhibited marked differences from the original Percival he had once been a part of. Most strikingly of all, Galahad was a strict pacifist, refusing to engage in violence of any kind.
